to new people i just say anti-imperialist
i think the quote is taken out of context. i think he is more referring to a united front/revolutionary defeatism than for it to be taken 100% seriously. Mao wasn’t an idiot
EDIT: found the context(in Selected Works Vol. 2) - he was indeed talking about a united front against Japan.
MLMs reject various Maoist ideas like the three worlds theory. The principles they advocate for are in many ways indistinguishable from baseline Marxism-Leninism, they just take it a step further with dogmatism.
dont think I’d call Pol Pot an MLM
